OCC to Host Innovation Office Hours in San Francisco

WASHINGTON — The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) today announced it will hold Innovation Office Hours, July 17-19, in San Francisco to promote responsible innovation in the federal banking system.

Office Hours are one-on-one meetings with OCC officials to discuss financial technology (fintech), new products or services, partnering with a bank or fintech company, or other matters related to responsible innovation in the federal banking system. OCC staff will provide feedback and respond to questions. Each meeting will last no longer than one hour.

Interested parties should request an Office Hours session by June 1, 2018, and are asked to provide information on why they are interested in meeting with the OCC. Specific meeting times and arrangements will be determined after the OCC receives and accepts the request.

The OCC will host its next Innovation Office Hours in Denver in August. The agency plans to release details on how to register for Denver Office Hours in June.
